LAD Bible says Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson once considered undergoing hypnosis therapy as a way to forget all of his movies because he wanted to watch them for the first time like a fan. He says, “It was such a loss for me not to be able to see them like everyone else. By the time they were screening, I was immersed in it for five or six years. I actually did seriously consider going to some hypnotherapy guy to hypnotize me to make me forget about the films and the work I had done over the last six or seven years so I could sit and enjoy them. I didn’t follow through with it.''

Dear Fonseca
I have been dating my boyfriend for four months. We are starting to talk about our future together. The other day, I asked him how much he earns. He refused to tell me. How am I supposed to move forward in a relationship if I don't know how much my partner earns? He refuses to talk about it or divulge his salary. Is this a red flag? I certainly think it is. My co-workers are split with some saying he shouldn't have to reveal his salary until we get engaged. What do you think? When should someone reveal their salary? Do you think he is hiding something? Should he reveal?
